Xu Bin, born in 1969 in Guang'an, Sichuan, China, embarked on his artistic journey by graduating from the Fine Arts Department of Southwest Normal University. As a freelance artist, his early works primarily consisted of oil paintings, heavily influenced by the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masters like Monet and Seurat. However, through a process of continuous learning and creative exploration, he skillfully assimilated the artistic essence of Matisse, Picasso, Dali, Chagall, and other renowned figures, fusing it with his own Chinese cultural background to develop a distinct and mature artistic style.
Dazzling colors, gracefully powerful characters, and profound, rigorous themes define Xu Bin's artistic creations. His vision extends far and wide, as his paintings not only convey the solemnity and elegance of contemporary everyday life but also delve into pressing social issues, historical and cultural transformations, and even offer glimpses into his visions of future life and technology. Regardless of the subject matter, Xu Bin's works emanate an unmistakable sense of elegance and refinement.
In recent times, Xu Bin has ventured into the realm of sculpture, demonstrating his unyielding spirit of exploration and innovation. His sculptures exude vitality and creativity, showcasing his exceptional artistic prowess.
